Hey there all.... I am guessing I do? They have gotten this big because I haven't been able to see the upper tops without having a ladder and seeing flowering is becoming more and more apparent I have been interested to see what the tops may look like and to my shock horror! None of the other two plants are like this, I would just like confirmation before I pull this one also and I had better do it pretty quick as it's right in the middle of another two females. I was thinking they may be seed pods but they don't grow anything like this do they? Also as you see in one image one of the pods is heading downwards, another sign to me that these are hermi's, oh and also I…

I am living in the Northeast. I want to start clones after the last frost but have some soil questions. 1) Can I use a shovel to turn the soil and just use the natural earth as I won't be able to water or fertilize? * I was going to turn the soil and maybe add something to it such as dolomite lime and some nutrients! 2) Is it totally necessary to add nutrients for veg and flower outdoors or can I use 1 soil with complete fertilizers to last entire crop? WILL THIS WORK: SOIL: Outdoor soil in the ground mixed with shovel Dolomite Lime Dyna Grow Pro Tech (for bugs and weather conditions) Dyna Grow Liquid Grow ( fertilizer ) Water with super oxy ( helps ai…

Microbial has a Ph of between 8.0-9.0 , so I thought add it after the Silika Magic, then Ph adjust. Sound like a plan? Thanks fellas, Cheers

Hi all, have had 2 afghans? growing in soil in a cupboard under a 400w light and today its been 8 weeks in the flower stage and they look like they still have a fair way to go. This is the first grow in this room and have had a few little dramas as i went along,the biggest one being heat. I will modify the room when this grow is done,if ever. but was hoping someone could tell me a rought estimate of when they will be done and if in fact it is Afghan. I have been plagued with yellow leaves now which im not sure if its a nitrogen thing or water thing,however im not to worried as i have two little ones in the first stages and am keen to get this grow over and start doin a r…
